  1. Reconciliation of DFO-COSEWIC Approaches For Stock Status and Cost-Benefit Analysis for Strategic Fisheries Management Naman Sharma and Dan Lane School of Management, University of Ottawa Ottawa, Ontario K1N 6N5 OMRN CONFERENCE

  2. What concerns? • Need for reconciliation of the approaches for culmination to effective management strategy. • Decline criterion approach of COSEWIC. • Reference point approach of DFO. • An integrated system approach based on Multicriteria decision analysis for complete perspectives of Fisheries System. OMRN CONFERENCE

  3. Some facts about Atlantic Cod Significant population declines The lack of rebuilding of the stocks results in drastic management measures - short-term and long-term moratoria on commercial fishing. Government recognizes the need to maximize the effectiveness of stock rebuilding efforts. Government also recognizes the need for feedback on effectiveness of measures taken. OMRN CONFERENCE

  7. DFO Reference Point Approach • Based on Precautionary framework defined by Limit Reference Points • Include the concept of Stock Status Zones to determine Management measures. • Stock Status Zones are • Critical Zone (Conservation Objective) • Cautious Zone (Conservation and Socio-Economic) • Healthy Zone (Conservation objective attained and Socio-Economic objective optimized) OMRN CONFERENCE

  8. DFO vs. COSEWIC : Major Concerns Decline criterion and marine fish stocks Special concern category Stock aggregation DFO Moratorium declaration COSEWIC designations and SARA listing Socio-economic consideration OMRN CONFERENCE

  9. Fisheries System Analysis • Current approaches do not deal with all aspects of the fishery system; • Federal Regulatory Policy (1999) requires analysis of all costs and benefits; • Fisheries Act of Canada (2006) requires sustainable Fishery for economic benefits of all Canadians. • Need for a system evaluation; consideration of multiple objectives and multiple components. • Application of principles of TQM to setting targets for multiple components. OBJECTIVE: Develop a comprehensive approach to Fisheries as a system based on structured MCDM approach for the exploration and evaluation of different policy alternatives under different scenarios to understand fish stock status.
